Huntingdon Town Council has become the first in Cambridgeshire to achieve Quality Council Status.  Launched in 2003 by the Minister of State for Rural Affairs, Rt. Hon. Alun Michael MP, the Quality Parish Council Scheme represents a significant step towards increasing the quality, effectiveness and status of Parish and Town Council which the government sees as an important element in its "community building" initiative.  The Council had to pass seven robust tests of competence in seeking to attain Quality Status.
